Zurich Art Prize is a Swiss art prize that has been awarded annually by the Museum Haus Konstruktiv together with the Zurich Insurance Group, since 2007.
The award includes a cash prize (roughly $100,000 USD), and a solo exhibition in a museum. Every year, Museum Haus Konstruktiv invites six curators, critics and art experts to nominate an artist for the award and from these selected nominees a jury selects the winner.
